They can BUY the joint too
One of the most amusing stories is that Peter O'Toole was upset a pub was closed and bought the pub to continue drinking into the night. He wrote the owner a cheque. He returned the next morning to cancel the cheque and became good friends with the pub owner. When the pub owner died, O'Toole drank substantially before going to the funeral. He ended up in the wrong funeral.
I have no idea whether this is an urban legend or not, but Peter O'Toole's stories surely make him far more fascinating than the characters he played. -

A pint? A PINT? Are you serious? If there really were such a fanciful place as heaven, you can be bloody damned sure those chaps would be well into their second bloody keg by now! And there would be well more than a few empty bottles of various descriptions nearby as well. And they would just be getting warmed up!
I have seen enough to know I have seen too much.
